Summary: A voltammetric immunosensor was developed for detecting porcine serum albumin (PSA) in raw meat products adulterated with pork. The study utilized nanoporous alumina (NPA) millirods as the biorecognition platform, which were covalently bioconjugated with anti-PSA antibodies. The PSA was then tagged with gold nanoparticles as the signaling probe and quantified using voltammetric analysis. The immunosensor showed high specificity and sensitivity, with a limit of detection of 50 pg/mL. Real-world applicability was successfully validated using pork/beef adulterated mixtures with a limit of detection of 0.05% (w/w).

Summary: This study investigates the simultaneous binding of two aptamers, NU172 and HD22, to human alpha-thrombin using a structural and dynamics approach. The crystal structure of the ternary complex formed by thrombin with NU172 and HD22_27mer provides insights into the cooperative binding at the two exosites and inspires the design of novel bivalent thrombin inhibitors. The study demonstrates a clear evidence of the synergic action of the two aptamers, with the binding of one aptamer influencing the flexibility and conformation of the other exosite.

Summary: An efficient chiral separation membrane was fabricated using bovine serum albumin (BSA) modified graphene oxide (GO) through EDC/NHS coupling chemistry. The BSA modified membrane successfully separated Phe racemate, achieving up to 96.1% excess enantiomer (ee) in the osmotic solution under optimal conditions. The addition of BSA not only increased the spacing in the membrane, but also created chiral channels for selective transport of L-Phe, resulting in high flux and selectivity. The microstructure of BSA was found to be crucial for the chiral separation performance of the membrane, as unfolding of its helical and globular three-dimensional structures weakened or eliminated the separation performance. Molecular docking simulation experiments supported this conclusion.

Summary: Interfacial reaction mechanisms at the anode/separator interface play a crucial role in the performance and safety of lithium-ion batteries during fast charging. The study investigates the evolution and interactions of aging mechanisms at the anode/separator interface in lithium cobalt oxide/graphite pouch cells charged at variable rates. It is found that fast charging leads to incremental lithium loss and capacity fade, but the magnitude of capacity fade reduces with the number of cycles. XPS and SEM analyses reveal electrolyte decomposition, increase in lithium concentration, dendritic lithium growth on the anode surface, and film fracture as the mechanisms involved.
